State of the Tribe: All-Star Break 2012

Found July 11, 2012 on Burning River Baseball:
TEAMS: Chicago White Sox
At the half way point in the season, the Indians find themselves just where they were projected, between the White Sox and the Tigers. The unexpected part is that the White Sox are in first while the Tigers are in third. Cleveland is currently 3 games behind Chicago and a half game ahead of Detroit. The Indians will be able to decide their own fate this season, at least as far as Detroit is concerned as they will play each other in four more series. The Tribe also have two series against Chicago to end the year. Overall the Indians have been very inconsistant this season, although the same could be said about every team in the AL Central. If this was not the case someone probably would have ran away with the division by now. One of Cleveland's biggest problems has been facing left handed pitching, where they have gone 9-16 compared to 35-25 against right handers. They seem to have made some advancements of late in this situation, winning their last two. In fact since I wrote th...

Kevin Youkilis Named American League Player of the Week for White Sox

Via NESN.com  |  July 10, 2012
Kevin Youkilis has gone on a bit of a tear since leaving Beantown. Youkilis, who was batting .233 before being traded to Chicago to make room for Will Middlebrooks at third base, has lifted his average to .262 since going 17-for-49 (.347) for the White Sox. That run includes a seven-game hitting streak, which was enough to earn Youkilis the honor of American League Player of the...

Another silly season for Adam Dunn

Via The Flagrant Fan  |  July 12, 2012
A year after putting up one of the worst statistical seasons in the history of baseball, Adam Dunn was an All Star in 2012. Of course, Encarnacion of the Blue Jays should have been instead of Dunn, but anyway, Adam Dunn was an All Star. After the season Dunn had in 2011, perhaps no one would have expected such a thing to happen. But that does not mean that Dunn's season is pretty...

White Sox gets quick test with long road swing

Via AP on Fox  |  July 12, 2012
Featuring a slew of rookies and a first-year manager, the Chicago White Sox jump into the second half of the season as the leaders in the AL Central, knowing that the next 2 1/2 months will be even tougher with Cleveland and Detroit giving chase. Manager Robin Ventura's low-key approach has gotten big approval ratings in the clubhouse and his team has played better than most...

Shortened Crosstown Classic Could Be Good For White Sox-Cubs Rivalry

Via Midwest Sports Fans  |  July 12, 2012
Every year since 1999, the White Sox and Cubs have faced each other six times a season as a part of interleague play. However, the “Crosstown Classic” will be trimmed a few games starting next season. MLB has announced that the Sox-Cubs, and most other interleague rivalry series, will be shortened from six to four games, with two games being in each park as opposed to three....

What Chicago White Sox GM Kenny Williams Should Do Before the Trade Deadline

Via Midwest Sports Fans  |  July 10, 2012
When dissecting the Chicago White Sox current 25-man roster, the holes are few and far between. For the most part, the starting pitching has been good behind aces Chris Sale and Jake Peavy; the offense has been powerful, or at least timely, as the team leads the majors in hitting with runners in scoring position; and the bullpen has been solid to this point, overcoming an excess...

Dunn says he gave up All-Star appearance to aid Butler

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  July 11, 2012
The National League team used all 21 of its available hitters Tuesday during its 8-0 win the All-Star Game. The American League team used 20 of 21, but there was a reason for the lone omission. Chicago White Sox designated hitter Adam Dunn was supposed to take over for Boston Red Sox DH David Ortiz in the middle innings, but he never got into the game. Dunn said he gave up his...
